Web alarm clock for 5:25 a.m.
Pause midway through your morning chores at 5:25 am and set an alarm before spreading the rice out to dry. The alert gives you a clear moment to leave what you are doing and check that the grains are laid in a thin, even layer. With 35 minutes until 6:00 am, you have enough time to finish arranging the rice without losing track of the next task before the midday rain arrives.
Keep the alarm page open while the rice is drying and leave the browser running. If you close the page or browser, the alarm may not sound; it can also stay silent if your phone or computer goes to sleep. That could leave the rice outside longer than planned as clouds begin to gather. Keep the screen awake, raise the volume to a level you can hear from the drying area, and use a separate alarm if you expect to step far away.
Moving between the house and the drying area this early can wake family members who are still asleep. Set a steady, moderate alarm sound and keep the phone near you so you can silence it quickly at 5:25 am. Prepare the tray, mat, or sack quietly beforehand, and avoid placing the phone beside a bedroom wall where its vibration may carry through the house.
